She's Still There: Rescuing the Girl in You

Love love love this book! Chrystal Evens is open, honest & real about the struggles she has faced and how she dealt with them. Something every woman can relate to no matter where you are in life. Highly recommend.

What an amazing book! Chrystal spoke right to my heart on so many levels. I am older than she is, but she certainly was able to speak into my life and this has sweetened my relationship with the Lord.

Very easy read-that keeps you turning the pages. This book encourages you to refocus on your God given dreams and go after them with passion. Really enjoyed thoroughly and share with women's group who are also enjoying.

I have loved reading this book!! It has helped be become a better person.Chrystal has shared her sense of humor and her own challenges she's experienced throughout the book. Worth reading and keeping!

As a wife for over 21 years, mother, stepmother, grandmother, homeschooling family for 16 years and counting, in home daycare provider, and active in children's ministry...I got lost. I look in the mirror and I don't quite recognize my reflection. Yes, there are extra pounds, gray hair, and many physical changes. But, it's the inner me looking back at a stranger. I was beginning to lose my fire and passion as His daughter under layers of disappointments, struggles, unmet expectations and the reality of life. Entering a new season of life as my roles are drastically changing as my children are   growing up, I wondered if there was a glimpse of the woman I long to be still inside. Chrystal Evans Hurst  helped answer that question with this new book. I can unequivocally say, "Yes, She's Still There!" With her authentic, transparent writing I began finding myself in the pages of her book. With her practical and thought provoking questions and tools, I was able to begin to peel back layer and layer of things I was hiding behind and could begin to break chains that were holding me captive. Though I'm still a work in progress, this inspired book has been an incredible catalyst in finding myself again. I'm still not exactly sure what my next season of life will look like, but I'm walking confidently and joyfully into it with a renewed sense of worth, passion and drive. If you're a woman struggling with a lost sense of identity, "She's Still There" is an incredible tool of rescue to help get your feet back on the right path. She shows us how to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress at the same time. It's never too late to find who you are meant to be, no matter how lost or off track you feel. She's still there!

I'm so grateful to have received an advanced copy of She's Still There. Chrystal has given a voice to the girl in each of us who is in the process or is still waiting to be rescued. We have so many thoughts and present situations that have drifted us away from our dreams and aspirations and we think they are lost forever. But God…. has so constructed us that if we put in the work we realize nothing has been lost but a rescue plan has always been available. Through Chrystal's vulnerability I am encouraged to share more of my life journey with other women who I encounter through my business. I can see using this book as a resource to encourage them to deal honestly with past pain but to also move forward with their dreams of entrepreneurship. She's Still There takes you through a journey to realize that you and your #sistercircle are worth the rescue!

I bought this book because I enjoy following Chrystal on FB and Instagram but I didn't need rescuing. So wrong -- this book hits the heart of probably most women. Things I did not realize I struggled with, there they were in black type on a book page. This is a book i will read more than once because it has so much truth. Thank you Chrystal for sharing an honest look at your life that I truly can relate to and learn from.

I only purchased this book for a Bible study group. The book was well written, but for me the author was so unrelatable. She could not handle the stress of her job, so she prayed for God to break her legs- really? That is so foolish! I am glad God is merciful and didn't break this lady's legs!

This book is so wonderful. As women we have dreams and thoughts about who we were going to be. We may let our circumstances control who we think we are now. That young girl in us wants to be remembered and have the fun and show the love to herself again. She needs to remember God has created her for a purpose.

Excellent book. I can't put it down. Chrystal shares life experiences and helps you realize the God given calling inside you. The book is packed with scripture, life application, and is a must read!! Highly recommend!!

I love this book. It's so insightful, relatable, and easy to read. With each chapter, I found that the reflection questions at the end really helped me dig deep into what I was really struggling with in my faith and personal growth. This book will remind you that you're not alone, and give you some of the tools you'll need to rediscover who you are.

This is a wonderful book that helps you through the process of getting unstuck! I could relate to many of the stories (forty and fat, ouch!). Just the push I needed to take God as my partner and start moving forward again.

I did not realize that by ordering the audio book, I wouldn't get the Bible verses and other resources at the end of each chapter. So I'm not able to fully participate in the Bible study with this audio cd.
